Senators still have plenty of interest in Jakob Chychrun

According to NHL reporter Brent Wallace, the Ottawa Senators remain interested in acquiring Jakob Chychrun from the Arizona Coyotes.

Chychrun, despite struggling during the 2021-22 season, is one of the brighter young defensemen in the entire NHL. Due to the Coyotes looking to build for the future, however, they have been taking calls on him for a year's time now, but have yet to have their asking price met. According to Wallace, that asking price is two first-round picks and a high-end prospect. To make things work money wise, the Coyotes would also reportedly be open to taking on Nikita Zaitsev's contract as well.

As previously mentioned, Chychrun, 24, struggled this past season, but in the shortened 2020-21 campaign registered a highly impressive 18 goals and 41 points in just 56 games. One can't help but wonder the offensive production he would be capable of if surrounded by a better roster. Perhaps we won't have to wait long to figure that out.
